ABSTRACT

Instead of having both the tooth—paste/gel and the tooth—brush on hand to brush your teeth, with my invention you only need a combination of both, to be taken on trips, to work/school or to be kept at home. This means that every member of the family can do their dentures independently of each other (i.e. having their own tooth—paste/gel). With my horizontal spin-head bristles, getting to clean between teeth will be much easier and more effective.

The object of my invention is to provide a tooth—brush made fromtransparent plastic, injection moulded or otherwise, that dispenses thetooth—paste/gel from the handle to the bristles by the press of abutton. Other more specific objects will appear from the descriptionhereinafter, and all the wonderful features of novelty will be disclosedin the claims.

These objects I accomplish by means of such structure and relativearrangement of parts as will fully appear by a perusal of the followingspecification and claim.

FIG. 1 is a sectional view of the first half of the tooth—brush taken online 1-1 of FIG. 3. It features a replaceable spin head brush on ahorizontal axis (item #1&2), the brush's cover, (item #3) the shaft &gear (item #4&6), also shown in this view is the housing (item #5) thebutton to activate the motor (item #7), the motor (item #8), the coverplate(item #9), rechargeable battery (item #10), a male connector (item#15), a clear passage/channel for the tooth-paste/gel, the valve forcontrolling the tooth-paste/gel flow to the brush (item #23), magnet(item #21) and (item #24) to facilitate the smooth flow of thetooth-paste/gel to the bristles. Items #18 & 19 are magnets, (item #20)lever, (items #17&22) are supports for the magnets and the lever, also amale threaded end. N.B. items #21 the magnet, 23 and 24, are to bebonded together with a suitable adhesive, likewise magnet #19 and lever#20 to be bonded together also. Items #17 and 22 to be bonded to thehousing item #5. Magnets #19 and 21 should be set to attract each other(unlike poles). Magnet #18 should be set to repel magnet #19. Thereforewhen the lever (item #20) is pushed backward (to the right), themagnetic field will make items #21, 23 and 24 also move backwards (tothe right) opening the valve, thus allowing the tooth-paste/gel to flowto the brush see FIG. 9. Magnet #18 is to ensure the closure of thevalve.

FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the second half of the tooth—brush takenon line 2-2 of FIG. 4. It features the handle (item #11) c/wtooth-paste/gel mixed with propellant under pressure (item #12), thepropellant under pressure (item #13), an o-ring (item #16) a femalethreaded area c/w a bung (item #14)with a female feature to receive(item #15) in FIG. 1. When FIG. 1 is screwed into FIG. 2, the maleconnector (item #15) will push back the bung (item #14) thereforereleasing the tooth-paste/gel/propellant mixture into thepassage/channel of FIG. 1 see FIG. 8.

FIG. 3 is a plan view of the first half of the tooth—brush.
